windows 10 update - broken laptop
by Guest Lis_ah- 0 replies
- 172 views
Hi, I've had my laptop just over a year. Not cheap. I'm currently doing a degree assignment. Windows 10 is ruining my life. My laptop updated at the weekend and initially I got a blue screen asking me to pick OS, and advising I pick "rollover" which I did. It went through a few rounds of this when I picked "windows 10" and it started, however nothing would work. No internet. Unable to do anything. Tried to do a system restore, but there was nothing to restore to??? When that all failed I did a reset. It worked once but had to turn off automatic updates to prevent the aforementioned painful update. Since then, if you turn it on, it constantly reboots,…

by Guest grandad w- 0 replies

Whilst working on my desktop three days ago the update began to install and since then I have had problems. My main problems are associated with my Canon MX925 Printer Scanner. a) I cannot scan from either computer. b) When attempting to print from either printer, it will on the first attempt, I get a message "Error printing on Canon …….." followed by a very slow print which fail totally on a second attempt.

After last 2 updates, Windows Explorer crashes when a Microsoft Doc / Excel / PPT file is selected
by Guest GCBL- 0 replies
- 213 views
Whenever I select a file (Microsoft Doc / Excel / PPT) in any folder, the folder hangs and eventually Windows Explorer crashes. This has been happening after after the last two Windows 10 updates. I am now at version 1803, using Microsoft Office 365. I can only open files from the applications and am unable to move files into folders. Is there any other way to fix this other than having to download previous versions of Windows 10 and 'downgrading' back to previous versions? Continue reading...

New Drive appeared
by Guest Illán Riestra Nava- 0 replies
- 167 views
So a couple of days ago I turn on my laptop and a notification informs me that there's an almost full drive, which was unlikely because the day before my only drive had 400gb left. So I click on the notification and I discover it is speaking of a drive I had never seen before (because it was never there). It was called ESP (D:) and i read on the internet that that was a partitions W10 needs for booting. I thought it was a bug and it would disappear next time I turned on the pc (as the time "control panel" appeared on mi desktop), but didn't. Its name changed instead, being called "local disk" now. This makes me wonder if it is still being used for booting w10 or if it…

Any way for me to connect to the Wi-Fi
by Guest ShawBlaze- 0 replies
- 214 views
So recently my computer had been infected with virus and i had lost access to most of my PC.. I could not connect to the Wi-Fi and if i tried to open an antivirus program.. It would also stop me from opening it... So i thought that the only way for me to fix my PC is to clean install windows 10 again.. (Which i did 2 times) using Media Creation Tool. After i installed Windows 10 my Computer opened up and it told me to connect to a network so i put in the password to the Wi-Fi i wanted to connect to... and it shows the error "cant connect to this network" i cant even "forget" the network since i was never connected to it in the first place.. I had to reinstall wind…

Folder Properties in Explorer under-reporting disk space usage following Win10 upgrade
by Guest Darren Campbell- 0 replies
- 166 views
Hi all The major update to Windows 10 was rolled out to my PC several days ago. Except for the issue I am reporting in this post, everything looks fine and the new and updated features all look good! However since the update the space usage being reported when I select the Properties menu item after right-clicking on a folder in Windows Explorer is reporting vastly lower disk space usage than it ever did before the update. For example, my Documents folder is showing 2.85Gb of space usage. However one of the subfolders (at the level directly below the Documents root directory) uses more than 5Gb by itself! (which in this case seems to be correctly report…

Windows 10 May 2018 - unable to use Surface Pro 4
by Guest ChrisMr1- 0 replies
- 210 views
My Surface Pro 4 received the Windows 10 update and will not allow me to use it unless I agree to Microsoft collecting "diagnostic" information - either basic or full. I won't "accept" either of these options so I cannot go any further, to use my Sufrace Pro 4, all I can do is turn it off which I have done. Is that it - is this the end of me being able to use my Surface Pro 4? Why I won't "accept": 1. It's a Microsoft product. Microsoft should be testing their own products with their own software and not be using me as a guinea pig / free testing service 2. It uses power which I HAVE TO PAY FOR 3. It uses internet bandwidth which spoils the intern…

Hello Everyone, This isn't a question but my long standing issue seems to now be resolved. I asked why my memory card slot wouldn't read my memory card adaptor with a micro usb in it on my HP laptop. the memory card reader is built in to the laptop. Responses from Microsoft were vague. However I've just installed update 1803 ( once again took ages though) but the card reader is now working. Can I suggest others with the same issue update and check to see if theirs is resolved. Thanks Microsoft. Regards John Continue reading...

Acer V5 471P Trackpad Stops Working Intermittently (Win10 x64 Ver. 1803)
by Guest MaddenJMF- 0 replies
- 141 views
Please help. I fix it, it works. Stops working say after a few days to a week. I reinstall the drivers and sometimes it comes back and sometimes it doesn't. I've fixed this three times now but what is causing the device to stop working? Up-to-date drivers, ELAN, Fn F7 does not kick it into working when it fails. Could it be power settings, a service failing? I cannot for the life of me pinpoint the cause of the failure and it is driving me crazy. I cannot find a search online with my problem, only fails after Windows 10 upgrades. I CANNOT work out why it randomly stops working and then I have to fix it and eventually I get it working. Unless this…

First off let me just say thank you for windows 10 I really love the OS I like that cortana is getting more and more functionality and thank you for the reader in edge I love to just go on a news article and let it read me the whole article while I work or just do things around the house it's wonderful. (Would like different voices for cortana though like a male variant but that is not what this is about. As I said massive MS fanboy with windows 10 but I hate I absolutely hate having all these extra apps installed on my system I mean I don't mind the "suggestions option" in the start menu but as soon as I click on my start menu I see at least 4 to 5 games or apps th…

I've got a problem with PC crashing.
by Guest Mikael Libäck- 0 replies
- 164 views
I'm probably going to be forced to reinstall windows but I figure I can try to ask for help first, but I doubt it's fixable. My PC recently began crashing every time within 5 minutes of starting windows. Sometimes it doesn't crash if I let it be for a while before I load any programs. But usually it BSODs within 5 minutes and reboots, funnily enough it never crashes again after rebooting. Untill I shut down the PC and restart it that is. Dump file It started happening roughly sometime after updating the IME driver, so that could be the problem unfortunately windows won't let me reinstall it. If I redownload the driver and try to install it it complains that the…
